HCG Diet Day 21

Recipe: Untraditional Chicken Veggie Miracle Noodle Soup
I just wanted to share this super easy recipe because I don’t think most people think of putting chard in chicken soup, but it’s amazing. Not only does it almost entirely reduce the need to salt the soup, but it packs quite the veggie punch without changing the taste. In a pot, dump: A box…

My silly baking: paleo pumpkin chocolate chip cookies
I really enjoy baking. I also really enjoy eating Paleo (no processed food, no grains, no dairy, no sugar), and the two are not very compatible. So I constantly quest to bake as Paleo-ish as possible. I have more failures (well, what’s a failure, really? I’ll eat it, but I wouldn’t feed it to friends)…
